美国与其他国家和国际组织沿着制定了一套详尽的伦理规范和法律的规则体系，以管理使用人体进行的生物医学研究。这些政策适用于可能为参与者提供直接健康益处的研究和对参与者健康益处没有前景的研究。然而，很少有人讨论这些规则如何适用于旨在改善参与者的能力或特征的研究，而不仅仅是健康的目标。当在文献中提及时，这种所谓的增强研究，而不是旨在诊断，预防，治愈或治疗疾病或医疗条件的研究，通常被驳回而不作解释。
The United States, along with other nations and international organizations, has developed an elaborate system of ethical norms and legal rules to govern biomedical research using human subjects. These policies govern research that might provide direct health benefits to participants and research in which there is no prospect for participant health benefits. There has been little discussion, however, about how well these rules would apply to research designed to improve participants’ capabilities or characteristics beyond the goal of good health. When mentioned at all in the literature, this so-called enhancement research, as opposed to research aimed at diagnosing, preventing, curing, or treating illnesses or medical conditions, is usually dismissed without explanation.
